[QUOTE="3800fps, post: 2072436, member: 42309"] In my 50 years of experience chasing ever smaller groups...neck turning is a marginal solution to correcting lopsided brass...(tightneck benchguns excluded)...outside turning, inside rearming are fleeting fixes to imperfect brass. Start with quality brass ( Lapua, select lots of Winchester, Starline,PMC) culling lopsided neck thicknesses was time better spent than correcting manufacturing defects with expensive reamers and mini-lathes... Necking down quality brass (270 win to 25-06 rem for example) gives me better accuracy results than neck turning...2nd, 3rd and 4th firings seem to be the sweet spot of brass accuracy life...work hardening, primer pockets start becoming issues degrading accuracy beyond the sweet spot...my 2 cents.
